Description
Yay for surrealism.I had a shoot scheduled with Michele the other day, and I was walking by her work coincidentally and saw this stop sign knocked down. Immediately, I wanted to do something with her long legs draped upon the sign. She is my hair dresser and I was having my hair cut before the shoot that very day. We decided to reschedule the rest of the shoot because of the humidity, but I wanted to get this shot. We shot for about 20 minutes, then she called me 15 minutes later...she just happens to also live upstairs and work right next to the sign...they had fixed the sign 15 minutes after the shoot. Maybe it was because a tall blond was laying all over it and and literally stopping the fuck out of traffic with a petite brunette snapping photos of the whole mess.
God, I love photography.
Full view is nicer....thank you.

This is what photography is ALL about. It's great to see outside the box photos. I wish more photographers would think outside the box. Awesome !

Such a funny story and such a cool shot. This is awesome and so totally unique. Keep up the great work. Again, I love that most of your photography is black and white...the color you do use is so vibrant and just jumps right out of the picutre. I'm in awe of your work. Great job.

Unfortunately, the only ones I have access to are my bosses...

Thats a great story and it made me laugh, then i decided to get a good look at the photo and it's just nuts.
Such a strange pose and use of black and white under striking red.
It's surreal.
